Well, as far as I am concerned, everyone using any dynamic libav* is on
his/her/its own, I neither test nor otherwise support it.
libavutil is more risky because it is used more "deep inside" MPlayer.
Though as long as you always use _exactly_!! the same version as the one
included in MPlayer you probably shouldn't have any problems. Of course
if you do this I don't see why you would want to use the dynamic libs
then, I don't think any of the advantages remain then...
